[Libreoffice] About enabling Icedove addressbook connection for Base

[julien2412]

I found that the main thing to change was in
connectivity/source/drivers/mozab/bootstrap/MNSFolders.cxx. But by running
some tests, it seems that the root directory is ~/.config instead of ~/

Precisely, I put a fourth element to have DefaultProductDir[3][4] instead of
DefaultProductDir[3][3] then I added ".icedove" after the paths
".thunderbird/", ".mozilla-thunderbird/", ".mozilla/thunderbird/" (padded
the other lines of the array with NULL)
It's when I followed on gdb that I saw the .config problem. To be more sure,
I created a link to ~/.icedove in ~/.config and it worked

After some discussion with Caolan, here is the point (I'm quoting Caolan) :
"
::osl::Security::getConfigDir is used to find the config dir for those
mozilla apps. Its a good thing that we honour XDG_CONFIG_HOME for
getConfigDir, but mozilla doesn't use it. Question is whether the fix would
be #ifdef UNX getHomeDir and what the situation is/should be for macosx
"

Moreover, I saw that in MNSFolders.cxx, there's also the variable
"ProductRootEnvironment" which contains : "MOZILLA_PROFILE_ROOT",
"MOZILLA_THUNDERBIRD_PROFILE_ROOT", "MOZILLA_FIREFOX_PROFILE_ROOT" then a
getenv on each String. But none of these are defined on my laptop, no
ICEDOVE equivalent too

Any idea ?
